Fox News contributor Mike Huckabee slammed President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris' embrace of "symbolism over substance" Friday on "The Brian Kilmeade Show" on Fox News Radio.

MIKE HUCKABEE: Ultimately, people elect you because they think you can do a job that will make your lives better, not because you’re going to be into symbolism. But this administration has embraced symbolism over substance.
